Detailed Description

A cross-platform file globbing library providing the ability to expand wildcards in command-line arguments to a list of all matching files. It is designed explicitly to be portable to any platform and has been tested on Windows and Linux. See CSimpleGlobTempl for the class definition.

Version: 3.6

FEATURES

MIT Licence allows free use in all software (including GPL and commercial)
multi-platform (Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2K/XP, Linux, Unix)
supports most of the standard linux glob() options
recognition of a forward paths as equivalent to a backward slash on Windows. e.g. "c:/path/foo*" is equivalent to "c:\path\foo*".
implemented with only a single C++ header file
char, wchar_t and Windows TCHAR in the same program
complete working examples included
compiles cleanly at warning level 4 (Windows/VC.NET 2003), warning level 3 (Windows/VC6) and -Wall (Linux/gcc)

USAGE

The SimpleGlob class is used by following these steps:

Include the SimpleGlob.h header file

        #include "SimpleGlob.h"

Instantiate a CSimpleGlob object supplying the appropriate flags.
```
         CSimpleGlob  glob(FLAGS);
        
```

Add all file specifications to the glob class.

        glob.Add("file*");
        glob.Add(argc, argv);

Process all files with File(), Files() and FileCount()

        for (int n = 0; n < glob.FileCount(); ++n) {
            ProcessFile(glob.File(n));
        }

◆ SG_Flags

enum SG_Flags

The operation of SimpleGlob is fine-tuned via the use of a combination of the following flags.

The flags may be passed at initialization of the class and used for every filespec added, or alternatively they may optionally be specified in the call to Add() and be different for each filespec.

Parameters

SG_GLOB_ERR	Return upon read error (e.g. directory does not have read permission)
SG_GLOB_MARK	Append a slash (backslash in Windows) to every path which corresponds to a directory
SG_GLOB_NOSORT	By default, files are returned in sorted into string order. With this flag, no sorting is done. This is not compatible with SG_GLOB_FULLSORT.
SG_GLOB_FULLSORT	By default, files are sorted in groups belonging to each filespec that was added. For example if the filespec "b" was added before the filespec "a" then the argv array will contain all b* files sorted in order, followed by all a* files sorted in order. If this flag is specified, the entire array will be sorted ignoring the filespec groups.
SG_GLOB_NOCHECK	If the pattern doesn't match anything, return the original pattern.
SG_GLOB_TILDE	Tilde expansion is carried out (on Unix platforms)
SG_GLOB_ONLYDIR	Return only directories which match (not compatible with SG_GLOB_ONLYFILE)
SG_GLOB_ONLYFILE	Return only files which match (not compatible with SG_GLOB_ONLYDIR)
SG_GLOB_NODOT	Do not return the "." or ".." special directories.
